Fit Review! + Athleta Sale! Mineral Wash Crop Tank, Studio To Street Camo Sweatshirt, Pure Luxe Sweatshirt, Solace Bra



Is everyone keeping cool in this summer heat? Athleta is having an extra 20% off sale thru Monday which means I have a few items from the sale to review.

For reference I'm 4 feet 11 and typically a size PXS/XS/XXS in Athleta depending on the style and cut. I'm normally a size 4 in Lululemon.


I loved my Mineral Wash Crop Tee so much that I picked up the Mineral Wash Crop Tank to try. This tank is the perfect length for petites. It wasn't too long and it wasn't too short. The arm holes are a little big, but I do think that is the style for this kind of tank. The tank is made of a sweat wicking fabric that is thin and dries fast. It's a very lightweight tank. The neck hole was comfortable. Overall I did like the tank but I didn't love it on me.



Next up I decided to try some of the women's sweatshirts to see if I liked them more than my Athleta Girl sweatshirts I reviewed earlier this month. 

Studio To Street Camo Sweatshirt Size XS


This sweatshirt is currently sold out. I'm wearing size XS and it is a little bit long in length, but the bottom of this sweatshirt has a stretchy band so you can customize the look. I don't usually gravitate towards camo, but wanted to try something a little different. The outside of this sweatshirt is buttery soft. The inside however is terry and I was a little surprised to find that it feels a bit rough against my skin. I wasn't expecting that. Otherwise I loved the fit and look but I ended up returning this one.



Next up we have the Pure Luxe Sweatshirt. This sweatshirt is labeled beyond soft and I knew I would probably love it and I wasn't wrong! The second I pulled it over my head and felt that cozy soft fleece against my skin it was game over. 😅


Similar to the Studio to Street Camo sweatshirt, this one also has an elastic band around the hem, but I actually like it. The elastic band keeps the top from riding up as you move around. I am really liking the oversized look lately, otherwise I'm pretty sure I could have also fit the XXS as well. Either size would have worked. 


Sleeves are a little long and there are also no thumbholes. I'm okay with it since it's on sale for $55.99. There's also the extra 20% off which makes it even more tempting to buy this in another color. 



I also want to try these too, I am a sucker for anything labeled beyond soft.

(Also comes in petite!)

Last but not least I have to say Athleta's Solace Bra is my new favorite everyday bra. Great for low impact workouts and I love wearing it instead of my normal bras. They're so much more comfortable that I am going to replace my Free to Be Wild bra collection so I can purchase more of these! For fit I wear a size 6 in Lululemon bras- and this translates to a size small in the Solace Bra




That's it for me! Hope everyone has a great Monday!

  1. I’m so glad you like the Solace bra!! I have one in 3 colors now and use them as my everyday bras.

    I really like the Pure Luxe sweatshirt on you, do you find that the neck opening is too tight or bothersome on you?

    I tried the Coaster Luxe sweatshirt a while ago and couldn’t deal with the way the neckline was cut, I was constantly tugging on it. It went back. I liked everything else about it though.

    1. Hi Jenny, the neck hole was totally comfortable on the Pure Luxe sweatshirt. Not tight at all.

      Really, I am surprised about the Coaster Luxe sweatshirt. Wouldn't have thought there would have been an issue with the neckline. That's too bad, but good to know, thanks!

  2. The pure luxe sweatshirt looks so cozy! The mineral wash tank reminds me of the muscle love crop but longer.

    1. It does look like the muscle love crop but different fabric. Thanks, the sweatshirt is like being wrapped up in a cozy blanket. =D

We tried HelloFresh for the past two months - Here's our review

Hi everyone! This post is written by my husband. Some of you may know he does all the cooking around here. 😅 We noticed we were spending a lot of money on food and eating out every month and wanted to see if a meal kit service would save us money and time. After looking at a few meal kit services we settled on HelloFresh. Without further ado, here's Jared's review. (Original post date Aug 2022). ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ As you may have seen from Leslie's Instagram stories for the past 2 months, we've been using HelloFresh for most of our meals. The main drivers for this were to better track what we eat and because on the advice of my doctor, I should be eating more home cooked meals. Before I go any further, it should be noted that my original career path was in culinary arts, but twists and turns in life changed that. So I do have formal cooking experience. A little background story. Over the years, I've developed
